My water bill is billed every 2 months. I got an outrageous 47,300 this bill.

But usually it's around 30-37k a month. It says I use 22 t. This seems extremely high. Just curious what you guys pay?

Some background info, I live near Gangnam station in Seoul.

I don't pay anything for water. It's 'free'.

sounds really high. Mine has never been over 10K

Maybe they're grouping you with other residents in an apt building.
This is a collective society.

Is that 473,000 won? If so, it's an error.

My water is included, but I pay about 30,000 to 40,000 a month for DMZ bottled drinking water.

30-37k a month?? Jeeze. I don't think I paid that in England.

As for here, I haven't seen a water bill anywhere so I guess I just don't pay for it.

I once saw my old boss's monthly home water bill: $1,500 Shocked

Yes, that's in US dollars.

After seeing that, everything seems relative.

If you're talking just tapwater, my bills (over 10 years in half a dozen apartments) have averaged around 5000 won/month.

Mine have been pretty consistant for 3 and a bit years, in 3 diferent locations

Between 5-8000 Won, It's never been more than that.

You must be paying for other peoples or paying for service charges
